Edgar Cayce citations

Edgar Cayce est un mystique américain. Lors de « lectures » , faites en transe par hypnose, il a répondu à des questions relatives à un individu. Ces lectures concernant, au début, la santé physique, les conseils se sont diversifiés et ont porté par la suite sur l'interprétation des rêves, les phénomènes psychiques, la santé mentale, la méditation, la prière, le développement spirituel, le commerce, sur les vies antérieures et l'Atlantide.

Selon Louis Pauwels, qui évoque sa biographie dans Le Matin des magiciens, Cayce a été un homme très simple, peu instruit, capable en état de sommeil de prescrire la solution médicale à toute maladie. Ses dons lui seraient venus, à cinq ans, après une maladie qui l'aurait plongé dans le coma. Dans cet état, l'enfant aurait donné alors à son médecin, à voix haute, la cause de son état et le type de cataplasme qu'il fallait lui appliquer. Plus tard, en état de « transe », Cayce prescrira un traitement à tous les malades qu'on lui amènera. Il aurait prédit le jour et l'heure de sa mort d'une maladie incurable qu'il ne voulut pas désigner.

Les sceptiques ont douté de la réalité de ses pouvoirs psychiques. Cayce a été toute sa vie un membre des Disciples du Christ , les chrétiens conservateurs ont critiqué ses prises de position théologiques, concernant notamment la réincarnation et les archives akashiques.

Il existe de nos jours encore, plusieurs dizaines de milliers d'adeptes de Cayce. La plupart d'entre eux habitent aux États-Unis et au Canada, mais il y a des centres Edgar Cayce dans 25 autres pays. L'Association for Research and Enlightenment , basée à Virginia Beach, est une organisation qui promeut les travaux de Cayce et conserve toutes ses lectures. Wikipedia

On Vocational Choices
Contexte: In those ways that open to you day by day. It isn't always the individual that plans to accomplish some great deed that does the most. It is the one who meets the opportunities and privileges which are accorded it day by day. As such opportunities are used, there are better ways opened. For what we use in the way of helpfulness to others, increases in itself. Begin with what you are!

Karma
Contexte: If the experience is used for self-indulgence, self-aggrandizement, or self-exaltation, the entity does so to its own undoing, and creates for itself that which has been called karma and which must be met. And in meeting every error, every trail, every temptation, whether they may be mental or physical experiences, the approach to it should always be in the attitude of: “Not my will, but Thine, O God, be done in and through me.”

“Forget the financial angle and consider rather which is the best outlet for the greatest contribution you can make towards making the world a better place in which to live.
